4-Preprocess.Pdf Data cleaning and Data preprocessing Nguyen Hung Son This presentation was prepared on the basis of the following public materials: 1. Jiawei Han and Micheline Kamber, „Data mining, concept and techniques” http://www.cs.sfu.ca 2. Gregory Piatetsky-Shapiro, „kdnuggest”, http://www.kdnuggets.com/data_mining_course/ preprocessing 1 Outline Introduction Data cleaning Data integration and transformation Data reduction Discretization and concept hierarchy generation Summary preprocessing 2 Why Data Preprocessing? Data in the real world is dirty incomplete: lacking attribute values, lacking certain attributes of interest, or containing only aggregate data noisy: containing errors or outliers inconsistent: containing discrepancies in codes or names No quality data, no quality mining results! Quality decisions must be based on quality data Data warehouse needs consistent integration of quality data preprocessing 3 Data Understanding: Relevance What data is available for the task? Is this data relevant? Is additional relevant data available? How much historical data is available? Who is the data expert ? preprocessing 4 Data Understanding: Quantity Number of instances (records, objects) Rule of thumb: 5,000 or more desired if less, results are less reliable; use special methods (boosting, …) Number of attributes (fields) Rule of thumb: for each attribute, 10 or more instances If more fields, use feature reduction and selection Number of targets Rule of thumb: >100 for each class if very unbalanced, use stratified sampling preprocessing 5 Multi-Dimensional Measure of Data Quality A well-accepted multidimensional view: Accuracy Completeness Consistency Timeliness Believability Value added Interpretability Accessibility Broad categories: intrinsic, contextual, representational, and accessibility. preprocessing 6 Major Tasks in Data Preprocessing Data cleaning Fill in missing values, smooth noisy data, identify or remove outliers, and resolve inconsistencies Data integration Integration of multiple databases, data cubes, or files Data transformation Normalization and aggregation Data reduction Obtains reduced representation in volume but produces the same or similar analytical results Data discretization Part of data reduction but with particular importance, especially for numerical data preprocessing 7 Forms of data preprocessing preprocessing 8 Outline Introduction Data cleaning Data integration and transformation Data reduction Discretization and concept hierarchy generation Summary preprocessing 9 Data Cleaning Data cleaning tasks Data acquisition and metadata Fill in missing values Unified date format Converting nominal to numeric Identify outliers and smooth out noisy data Correct inconsistent data preprocessing 10 Data Cleaning: Acquisition Data can be in DBMS ODBC, JDBC protocols Data in a flat file Fixed-column format Delimited format: tab, comma “,” , other E.g. C4.5 and Weka “arff” use comma-delimited data Attention: Convert field delimiters inside strings Verify the number of fields before and after preprocessing 11 Data Cleaning: Example Original data (fixed column format) 000000000130.06.19971979-10- -3080145722 #000310 111000301.01.000100000000004 0000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.0000 00000000000. 000000000000000.000000000000000.0000000...… 000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.00 0000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.0000 00000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000 000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.000000000000000.00 0000000000300.00 0000000000300.00 Clean data 0000000001,199706,1979.833,8014,5722 , ,#000310 …. ,111,03,000101,0,04,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0300, 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0300,0300.00 preprocessing 12 Data Cleaning: Metadata Field types: binary, nominal (categorical), ordinal, numeric, … For nominal fields: tables translating codes to full descriptions Field role: input : inputs for modeling target : output id/auxiliary : keep, but not use for modeling ignore : don’t use for modeling weight : instance weight … Field descriptions preprocessing 13 Data Cleaning: Reformatting Convert data to a standard format (e.g. arff or csv) Missing values Unified date format Binning of numeric data Fix errors and outliers Convert nominal fields whose values have order to numeric. Q: Why? A: to be able to use “>” and “<“ comparisons on these fields) preprocessing 14 Missing Data Data is not always available E.g., many tuples have no recorded value for several attributes, such as customer income in sales data Missing data may be due to equipment malfunction inconsistent with other recorded data and thus deleted data not entered due to misunderstanding certain data may not be considered important at the time of entry not register history or changes of the data Missing data may need to be inferred. preprocessing 15 How to Handle Missing Data? Ignore the tuple: usually done when class label is missing (assuming the tasks in classification—not effective when the percentage of missing values per attribute varies considerably. Fill in the missing value manually: tedious + infeasible? Use a global constant to fill in the missing value: e.g., “unknown”, a new class?! Imputation: Use the attribute mean to fill in the missing value, or use the attribute mean for all samples belonging to the same class to fill in the missing value: smarter Use the most probable value to fill in the missing value: inference-based such as Bayesian formula or decision tree preprocessing 16 Data Cleaning: Unified Date Format We want to transform all dates to the same format internally Some systems accept dates in many formats e.g. “Sep 24, 2003” , 9/24/03, 24.09.03, etc dates are transformed internally to a standard value Frequently, just the year (YYYY) is sufficient For more details, we may need the month, the day, the hour, etc Representing date as YYYYMM or YYYYMMDD can be OK, but has problems Q: What are the problems with YYYYMMDD dates? A: Ignoring for now the Looming Y10K (year 10,000 crisis …) YYYYMMDD does not preserve intervals: 20040201 - 20040131 /= 20040131 – 20040130 This can introduce bias into models preprocessing 17 Unified Date Format Options To preserve intervals, we can use Unix system date: Number of seconds since 1970 Number of days since Jan 1, 1960 (SAS) Problem: values are non-obvious don’t help intuition and knowledge discovery harder to verify, easier to make an error preprocessing 18 KSP Date Format days_starting_Jan_1 - 0.5 KSP Date = YYYY + ---------------------------------- 365 + 1_if_leap_year Preserves intervals (almost) The year and quarter are obvious Sep 24, 2003 is 2003 + (267-0.5)/365= 2003.7301 (round to 4 digits) Consistent with date starting at noon Can be extended to include time preprocessing 19 Y2K issues: 2 digit Year 2-digit year in old data – legacy of Y2K E.g. Q: Year 02 – is it 1902 or 2002 ? A: Depends on context (e.g. child birthday or year of house construction) Typical approach: CUTOFF year, e.g. 30 if YY < CUTOFF , then 20YY, else 19YY preprocessing 20 Conversion: Nominal to Numeric Some tools can deal with nominal values internally Other methods (neural nets, regression, nearest neighbor) require only numeric inputs To use nominal fields in such methods need to convert them to a numeric value Q: Why not ignore nominal fields altogether? A: They may contain valuable information Different strategies for binary, ordered, multi-valued nominal fields preprocessing 21 Conversion: Binary to Numeric Binary fields E.g. Gender=M, F Convert to Field_0_1 with 0, 1 values e.g. Gender = M Æ Gender_0_1 = 0 Gender = F Æ Gender_0_1 = 1 preprocessing 22 Conversion: Ordered to Numeric Ordered attributes (e.g. Grade) can be converted to numbers preserving natural order, e.g. A Æ 4.0 A- Æ 3.7 B+ Æ 3.3 B Æ 3.0 Q: Why is it important to preserve natural order? A: To allow meaningful comparisons, e.g. Grade > 3.5 preprocessing 23 Conversion: Nominal, Few Values Multi-valued, unordered attributes with small (rule of thumb < 20) no. of values e.g. Color=Red, Orange, Yellow, …, Violet for each value v create a binary “flag” variable C_v , which is 1 if Color=v, 0 otherwise ID Color … ID C_re C_orange C_yello … d w 371 red 371 1 0 0 433 yellow 433 0 0 1 preprocessing 24 Conversion: Nominal, Many Values Examples: US State Code (50 values) Profession Code (7,000 values, but only few frequent) Q: How to deal with such fields ? A: Ignore ID-like fields whose values are unique for each record For other fields, group values “naturally”: e.g. 50 US States Æ 3 or 5 regions Profession – select most frequent ones, group the rest Create binary flag-fields for selected values preprocessing 25 Noisy Data Noise: random error or variance in a measured variable Incorrect attribute values may due to faulty data collection instruments data entry problems data transmission problems technology limitation inconsistency in naming convention Other data problems which requires data cleaning duplicate records incomplete data inconsistent data preprocessing 26 How to Handle Noisy Data?

Computer scientists have been develop- ing techniques for preserving data integrity during trans- formation since the 1970s (Doan, Halevy, and Ives 2012); however, we agree with the authors of (Breiner, Subrah- manian, and Jones 2018) and others that these techniques are insufficient for the practice of AI and modern IT sys- tems integration and we describe a modern mathematical approach based on category theory (Barr and Wells 1990; Awodey 2010), and the categorical query language CQL2, that is sufficient for today’s needs and also subsumes and unifies previous approaches. 1.1 Outline To help motivate our approach, we next briefly summarize an application of CQL to a data science project undertaken jointly with the Chemical Engineering department of Stan- ford University (Brown, Spivak, and Wisnesky 2019). Then, in Section 2 we review data integrity and in Section 3 we re- view category theory. Finally, we describe the mathematics of our approach in Section 4, and conclude in Section 5. We present no new results, instead citing a line of work summa- rized in (Schultz, Spivak, and Wisnesky 2017).

  • Scientific Data Mining in Astronomy
    SCIENTIFIC DATA MINING IN ASTRONOMY Kirk D. Borne Department of Computational and Data Sciences, George Mason University, Fairfax, VA 22030, USA [email protected] Abstract We describe the application of data mining algorithms to research prob- lems in astronomy. We posit that data mining has always been fundamen- tal to astronomical research, since data mining is the basis of evidence- based discovery, including classification, clustering, and novelty discov- ery. These algorithms represent a major set of computational tools for discovery in large databases, which will be increasingly essential in the era of data-intensive astronomy. Historical examples of data mining in astronomy are reviewed, followed by a discussion of one of the largest data-producing projects anticipated for the coming decade: the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). To facilitate data-driven discoveries in astronomy, we envision a new data-oriented research paradigm for astron- omy and astrophysics – astroinformatics. Astroinformatics is described as both a research approach and an educational imperative for modern data-intensive astronomy. An important application area for large time- domain sky surveys (such as LSST) is the rapid identification, charac- terization, and classification of real-time sky events (including moving objects, photometrically variable objects, and the appearance of tran- sients). We describe one possible implementation of a classification broker for such events, which incorporates several astroinformatics techniques: user annotation, semantic tagging, metadata markup, heterogeneous data integration, and distributed data mining. Examples of these types of collaborative classification and discovery approaches within other science disciplines are presented. arXiv:0911.0505v1 [astro-ph.IM] 3 Nov 2009 1 Introduction It has been said that astronomers have been doing data mining for centuries: “the data are mine, and you cannot have them!”.

  • Data Quality Through Data Integration: How Integrating Your IDEA Data Will Help Improve Data Quality
    center for the integration of IDEA Data Data Quality Through Data Integration: How Integrating Your IDEA Data Will Help Improve Data Quality July 2018 Authors: Sara Sinani & Fred Edora High-quality data is essential when looking at student-level data, including data specifically focused on students with disabilities. For state education agencies (SEAs), it is critical to have a solid foundation for how data is collected and stored to achieve high-quality data. The process of integrating the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) data into a statewide longitudinal data system (SLDS) or other general education data system not only provides SEAs with more complete data, but also helps SEAs improve accuracy of federal reporting, increase the quality of and access to data within and across data systems, and make better informed policy decisions related to students with disabilities. Through the data integration process, including mapping data elements, reviewing data governance processes, and documenting business rules, SEAs will have developed documented processes and policies that result in more integral data that can be used with more confidence. In this brief, the Center for the Integration of IDEA Data (CIID) provides scenarios based on the continuum of data integration by focusing on three specific scenarios along the integration continuum to illustrate how a robust integrated data system improves the quality of data. Scenario A: Siloed Data Systems Data systems where the data is housed in separate systems and State Education Agency databases are often referred to as “data silos.”1 These data silos are isolated from other data systems and databases.
